From jsonline, Milwaukee:
In a bizarre twist of events, a Sheboygan County man was hospitalized on Saturday after the jack he used to steal the rims off a 2016 GMC Sierra couldn't hold up the weight of the truck, which collapsed on him.
The 45-year-old man was found trapped beneath the vehicle at 6:45 a.m. on Saturday by a customer pulling into the parking lot of Meyer Motors at 107 Plaza Lane in Plymouth.
The Sheboygan County Sheriff's Office said the man had been trapped for seven hours.
He was transported to ThedaCare Medical Center in Neenah, where he is being treated.
Steve Schuh, sales manager at Meyer Motors, said the man does have a fractured skull but was able to communicate with authorities when he was found on Saturday morning.
Schuh said one of the rims was stolen, but was later recovered. He added that another person may have been with the man and left with a rim before the car fell.
Charges against the man are possible, the sheriff's office said. http://www.jsonline.com/news/crime/truck-falls-on-sheboygan-man-trying-to-steal-vehicles-rims-b99743353z1-382708831.html
A nice, slow and painful recovery should be sufficient, followed up with some jail time and probation.
Something tells me that this guy may become a future Darwin Award winner.
